A new Trojan named Efimer has been identified, which can alter cryptocurrency wallet addresses in the clipboard, redirecting funds to cybercriminals. Efimer spreads primarily through compromised WordPress sites and phishing emails. Once installed, it can disable Windows Defender, install a Tor client, and capture seed phrases and wallet addresses. It targets Windows users globally, particularly those in Brazil, Russia, India, Spain, Germany, and Italy. The Trojan primarily targets wallets holding Bitcoin, Ethereum, Monero, Tron, and Solana, but may expand to other cryptocurrencies. To protect against Efimer, users are advised to use reliable security solutions, create strong passwords, enable two-factor authentication, avoid downloading files from unverified sources, and not store seed phrases in plain text.

The National Electronic Media Council (NEPLP) has restricted access to the Russian torrent tracker kinozal.tv and added it to its list of restricted domains, along with ThePirateBay.org. This action follows a previous decision in late July to block access to ten websites that disseminate Russian propaganda, which were deemed to contradict Latvia's national security interests. These websites were reported to promote biased information regarding the war in Ukraine and could negatively impact Latvian society and its support for Ukraine. Additionally, two specific websites were identified as platforms for recruiting Russian servicemen for military operations in Ukraine.

Recent research from Dr.Web has identified a malware family called Trojan.Scavenger that targets Windows users by disguising itself as game performance boosters or enhancements. This malware exploits vulnerabilities in games like Grand Theft Auto 5 and Oblivion Remastered, typically arriving as modified dynamic libraries with extensions like .ASI. When installed, it can automatically load if the game does not validate its libraries properly. Once activated, it connects to a command-and-control server using encrypted communication and can deploy additional trojans that infiltrate Chromium-based browsers, disrupting their security features and replacing legitimate extensions with malicious ones. This puts applications at risk, including crypto wallets like MetaMask and Phantom, and password managers like Bitwarden and LastPass, as the malware captures sensitive information and sends it to attackers. Exodus wallet is also targeted, with the malware extracting critical JSON entries for private key generation. To mitigate these risks, users are advised to avoid downloading unofficial content from unverified sources, keep antivirus software updated, manage social media interactions carefully, and verify file paths and digital signatures.

A novel method for downloading torrent files using Google Colab and the download utility aria2 has emerged, allowing users to mask their real IP addresses from peers in the file-sharing community. This technique involves executing scripts in Google Colaboratory to install aria2 on a virtual machine, enabling downloads from torrent files via magnet links. The user's IP address is replaced by Google's, and completed downloads are typically stored in the user's Google Drive. However, this method does not make illegal downloads lawful, as downloading copyrighted materials remains a violation of the law in many jurisdictions.

Microsoft introduced the Recall feature in Windows 11 about a year ago, which was intended to record and remember users' activities. The feature faced significant backlash over privacy concerns, leading to its retraction. Users were uncomfortable with the idea of Microsoft recording their actions, despite assurances that data processing would occur locally. The launch of Windows 10 in 2015 also faced criticism due to telemetry, which is the collection of anonymized data for monitoring software performance. This led to perceptions of surveillance and privacy infringement, prompting Microsoft to implement new privacy controls. By 2017, increased transparency and enhanced privacy features improved user reception. Despite the backlash, telemetry remains a standard practice in software development, and Microsoft has become more aware of privacy concerns, influencing user vigilance regarding data. As Windows 10 approaches its tenth anniversary on July 29, 2025, it highlights the heightened awareness of software privacy among users.
